ftp issues user cannot connect Centos

pure-ftpd (followed howto install for centos) generates this in with PASV off and a hanging loop passive mode, see data below? Any ideas?

PASV on:

PASV off:

 

This is probably a firewall problem.

 

ok, which firewall are you referring to? The user tested on more then one occasion with his firewall off and the same result. The system is using the ISP firewall and ports 120,121, 42000 tot 42010 are open, portforwarding is set correctly and of course in pure-ftpd.conf 42000 to 42010 is PassivePortsRange. FTP server was restarted more then once and just to be sure reboot also done. The result does not change. Could you be a bit more specific and explain what else there is that can cause a firewall problem ?

 

ok, here they are

 

What's the output of

Code:

grep erpc /etc/services

?

 

as requested....

 

Your FTP daemon is listening on port 121 instead of 21...

 

I know, everything is set for port 121 and not for 21 we have a reason for that, but as you can see in the top of this post, that is not the problem, the problem is the hangs and the loops when logged in on port 121

 

Even when Joomla tries to use PASV FTP on the site to delete some cache files somewhere else in its own directory this is the response.
